Karl Monaghan and John Moynes at last night’s Realex Fire Web Awards

In your office there’s work to be done,
But you’d rather lay low and have fun,
So you come here to meet,
The good folk of broadsheet,
Because we’re the best. We’re number one.

It’s hard to find a submarine,
If it doesn’t want to be seen,
And even a Swede,
Who is thorough indeed,
Will miss such a fishy machine.

As our country starts to revive,
One sector continues to thrive,
Let’s cash in on the craze,
For damp holidays,
You can’t beat us; we’re Number Five.

John Moynes

Keep yourself indoors today,
There’s a bloody big storm on the way,
So it’s time to retire,
By a nice cosy fire,
And hope your roof holds up okay.

Peter Coyne, then CEO of the Dublin Docklands Authority with Bono in 2002

A building on Hanover Quay,
Was once owned by you and by me,
But the DDDA,
In a secretive way,
Got rid of it quite quietly.

For a while there it seemed like the Hun,
Would ruin our evening of fun,
But we told the fourth Reich,
To go take a hike,
When O’Shea slotted in a late one.

John Moynes

The world breathes a sigh of relief,
As our hero appears for a brief,
Walkabout with a stick,
The poor chap’s a bit sick,
Which was causing us all so much grief.
